Frankly, if they shipped to Taiwan I probably would have bought the last few at $127 and maybe the ones at $140. Just giving a heads up to anyone who's looking for a very cool spec, doesn't want to buy crappy RL leftovers which seem likely to tank when the fervor subsides, and doesn't want to shell out for the RL staples or print-for-whales cards. I'm not trying to pump up the value of what I bought, as I'm never selling. I only saw 1 NM English foil sold on ebay during the past few months. TCG has 3x copies left around $127, 3x in the $140s, and one $250s (NM condition). Availability is not surprisingly, very limited.Comes from one of the earliest sets with the Mythic rarity, and is from an era when the regular pack foils meant something.kind of like the Empire State Building will always be remembered as the "first, tallest" skyscraper). Likely going to be the baddest creature ever printed (even if they print a better one, she will be the "first, best".My thesis for the price rising is that it is: I'm not betting on that, but if unbanned I can see this easily retest the highs at $350 if not much, much higher. I've read some debate as to whether she could be unbanned, and I think the broad summary is that she probably could be since the power level of the format has risen so much since banning, but probably won't be cause it wouldn't really add anything to the format. People have been speculating on Commander staples, and her ban has kept a lid on the price (though it's still a Legacy staple and shows up in Modern occasionally). What data I could find shows she was price initially ~$50, ran up to $350, and has fallen dramatically to stabilize at $100-125 for the past few years. To my surprise, the biggest, baddest creature of all time has one of the lowest prices for anything comparable. I also am unimpressed by the "print for whales" cards like Jeweled Lotus or artificially low supply variants of fairly normal cards in recent sets. I wanted a piece of the action of the recent spec craze, but didn't really feel any connection to the reserve list cards around $100-200 range, which is what I was looking to spend. a card I'd never played but always liked. I spent my last stimmy on foils of the original Emrakul.
